Payment for Missed Sessions: a Pound of Flesh?

Payment for Missed Sessions: a Pound of Flesh? - 2013.

The analyst's non-observance of payment rules constitutes a symbolically bodily and potentially traumatic mutilation for him. Based on a clinical situation in which the analyst came to agree to a change in the rule of payment for missed sessions, we will see how this enactment, granting the patient some anal sadistic control in the analytic exchange, assumes a position in a symbolic chain when the missed session comes to represent both an absent content and a container of absence to be cathected.
